Lowering Question on 20's

Would the Eibach kit work with 225/35/20 tires? The Wheels are 5 x110, 7.5 wide, 42mm offset American racing Casino's. I want a 35 series tire for a little extra meat and I know the goldlines would def not work but would the Eibachs be ok??

You should definately be all right. Only rubbing you might experience is from really hard dips and bumps. You may to roll the rear fenders slightly to accomodate the larger tires. Its a very simple task that one can do in the driveway with nothing more than a WOODEN baseball bat!

I didn't go to 20's, but I did go to 18's 7.5 and that's a pretty wide tire. I'm real happy.

How many cars have you owned, much less one with 18's or 20's?
